It’s nuts. However, I suspect most mainstream people are put off by the techy / crypto flavor of #Nostr. It scares them. To them, it looks like just another one of those nerdy crypto chat places that popped up and will disappear again. If it was marketed with less crypto jargon, more like a decentralized social media “platform” and viable alternative to X I suspect it would hit harder. Having said that, do we really want to pull ALL the X crowd into Nostr? A toxic culture has developed on X that has attracted strange people. That engagement farming craziness had already killed it long before #Elon showed his true face.
